Ralph Carver died at home on Friday, September 9. He was hit by a car. The car did not stop. His name was Ben and he lived with Ralph, who we call both Brother and Dad. They were together 80 years. Some days Ralph would have trouble remembering Ben’s name. He would start to say “younger” or “old timer”, but the last couple days he said “Ben”. Ben died 4 years ago today.
On April 23, I was struck by an epiphany. It came to me like a thunderbolt: my brother was going to die. Sure, he was healthy. No one had said anything, but a feeling crept up inside me.

Detailed dream interpretation from the 1930s
To actually dream of your family, including your brother, means that there are going to be pleasant times ahead. Carl Jung claimed that childhood siblings in your dream, including rivalry and jealousy, may influence the dream symbol for the brother. For a female to dream of her brother means that her personality may be neglected and undeveloped. Sometimes this may involve anti-social qualities that are difficult to express. For a man to dream of a brother, it means he will be challenged but will win in the end.
To dream you are talking to your brother can signify great domestic security. An objective dream of unity is also an indication of financial stability. If you find that you have more than one brother, then you may encounter a new start in life. Also, you may have a new car soon if you don’t have a brother in real life. Some dream pschologists use the brother as a car in the dream / waking world. Of course, try to make sure that you always remember and check when you are reversing the car or that the road is clear when you walk across, the advice is to be more careful (than normal) if you face traffic the next day.
Seeing your brother commit a crime in a dream could mean hypocrisy from your existing brother, but also long life, but free of pleasures. Seeing a brother in your dream that in reality is not your sibling could foretell unfulfilled wishes and jealousy. Having a brother talk to you in a dream is a positive omen.
If in your dream you fight with your brother, it can suggest someone close will suffer a broken heart and will experience sadness (not you of course). It could be an omen that you might be needed in a friendship context. Recognizing your brother in the dream suggests that you must do some corrections in your life. An older brother is the sign of a life without worries and a courageous gesture. A younger brother foretells a person that will help you in your family.
Dreaming that your brother has passed away in old 1930s dream lore predicts a long and serene life. A deceased brother in a dream (most of the books I have read) denotes a good omen. If you receive a letter from your brother in the dream, you will experience cowardice and lies. If your brother is acting kind to you it means you will fight with a friend. If your brother is acting badly to you means luck is coming your way.
Dreaming of a step-brother is the omen if family events. Talking to your brother in a dream means long life. Seeing your brother in a bad light during your dream state foretells big success. If you see your brother coming towards you in your dream, you will enjoy lots of years full of joy. If your brother smiles, this is a good omen for love and business, prosperity, and big profit.
To dream that you are on good terms with a brother means you will not have money problems, but you will have a state of tension. These are ancient/old dream meanings purely from a spiritual perspective. I hope you liked them.
Feelings that you may have encountered during a dream of brother
If you have a dream about your brother, it’s a good sign of family unity and support. It may also mean that you’re ready to become more independent and take on more responsibilities.
Brothers in dreams can also symbolize our brothers in real life. If we don’t get along with our real-life siblings, this may reflect an underlying issue in the relationship.
If you dream about someone who is not your brother but has the same name as one of them, this could be a sign that there is something about your own personality that reminds you of this person, or vice versa. The feelings you have for this person will be similar to the feelings you have for your brother.
If you dream about your brother dying or being ill, it may indicate that there’s something wrong in his life or health that needs attention before it becomes too late to fix it (e.g., he hasn’t been taking care of himself properly).
